Arsenal boss Wenger wants change to loan transfer laws

Emmanuel Adebayor struck twice as Tottenham beat Aston Villa on Monday night to move into third place in the top flight, but current Premier League rules dictate that he will not be able to put a dent in Manchester City's own title challenge. Wenger thinks that is wrong.

"If the loan is a loan he should be capable to play against everybody," he told arsenal.com. That is the only thing I believe. And it's the same with Bendtner.

"Look before, remember, you had the choice. There was one period where you had the choice and I never, never refused the choice. I always said yes, you can play against us. Even though, one time, Francis Jeffers I think was on loan and scored against us.

"I allowed Jermaine Pennant to play against us with Leeds and I always allowed the players to play. I would allow Bendtner to play too."
